While Sanchez stunned in her peach gown at the inaugural ball, her inauguration look was found inappropriate by online users. The Emmy-winning journalist wore a white Alexander McQueen pantsuit with a trim low-cut blazer, showcasing a lacy bustier that peeked out from underneath the jacket. The peekaboo bustier with floral detail sparked strong reactions from critics.

One more person chimed in with, "What a classless outfit to wear today." A fourth comment had some sharp humor, "Bezos's wife couldn't wear an appropriate shirt? 😂."
